Any guide book will tell you that a trip to Tokyo MUST include a Sunday afternoon in Harajuku, to see all of the young people in their Sunday finest. The area around the station is filled with a 'freak show' and hundreds of tourists taking photos of the freak show.
Their parents must be so proud! I guess most kids leave home for the day in normal clothes and take with them a suitcase for their costume and makeup!
The guidebook was right; the parade at Harajuku is well worth a visit!

Now you are linked to my blog too
I thought it was amazing that the 'freaks' were taking photo of each other too... It wasn't just us tourists with our cameras. Oh, and I will never forget that little old granny with the kick ass camera!
These pics still amaze me! Oh what style! (?)
